Avril Lavigne's Hello Kitty MV racist?

Finally! The music video was published, and guess what? It earned bunch of comment stating that it is racist. Honestly, in my own opinion--I'm not a Japanese so I don't know if it is really foul in terms of culture however I'm a fan of the Japanese culture and people (let me point that out!! :D)-- my observation is that Avril is just showcasing the modern Japanese teenage girl generation as a thank you to all her Japanese fans. She's just stating the uniqueness, beauty and cuteness of the Japanese culture.

And to further convince you with that: at the near end part of the mv you will even see the different faces of Japanese teenage generation: from lolita to gyaru to the simple kawaii ones walking cheerfully behind Avril--now, isn't that just lovely? :3

Moreover, upon hearing the song for the first time couple of months ago I really thought that its mv will be somewhat like this--kawaii, colorful and Japanese-ish. Because duh "Hello Kitty", for one thing, is from Japan; another is that she even mentioned "Minna Saiko Arigatou Kawaii"--well isn't that Japanese?

When I Let Belo Touched my Armpit: The Belo Beauty Deo Review

Hello Lovelies! Being born a sweaty-pig, I struggled during my puberty days, it is either I end up stinky and soaking wet or having a overwhelming smell of deo and yellow stains on my uniforms--because I just don't know where or who to ask or open up for it is a pretty personal and embarrassing stuff. So moving forward, I end up ruining my armpit, it has chicken skin and uneven skin tone. For years I've been using all-natural alum deo, be it powdered or the solid one, just to save my shirts & blouses from stains but the downside is that it doesn't have any antiperspirant property--which is kinda embarrassing, not just for girls but for everyone! Dyahe bes! Hindi nakakaganda. Then one time, my Mom made me use her Avon's Quelch Deo--and it quite good. I didn't sweat and there's no stain--but then again it just my first time of using it--so I wasn't convince yet, I told myself that I need to try it for a longer period. However, the thing is I don...
